Corrupted download

I got the windows pack, and its not a zipped file, just an installer.

That means the problem is somewhere between downloading and writing the file to the drive. There are a couple things you can do to the drive to ensure that it is error free, scandisk with surface scan and defrag. Microsoft recommends running scandisk with surface scan before defragging, doing the surface scan will ensure that if there are any bad sectors on the drive, they will be mapped appropriately so that the OS doesn't write to them.

Defrag will re-arange the file's on the drive in a way that the files are closer together and free space is closer together "physically" and may free up some space on the drive.

A warning about defrag, it may corrupt some files like .jpg and .mpg so backup your stuff first. There are other defrag utilities besides windows built in defrag, some are better than windows.

You may want to try a download manager first?

? do you mean the CS3 beta exe for windows?
It is a self extracting compressed file, power archiver will open it if windows doesn't. If it is corrupted, it won't self extract in windows.
